Situated at Heart of the Country shopping village in Swinfen between the affluent areas of Lichfield City and the royal town of Sutton Coldfield, the restaurant provides the perfect spot for shoppers and day-trippers to enjoy breakfast, lunch, coffee, cake or afternoon tea. Alongside the loyal customer base, successful marketing and online presence has resulted in opportunities for private hire and special occasions such as boutique weddings, baby showers and birthdays. Over the last 8 years, the current owner has grown a regular and loyal customer base and maintained an excellent reputation for high quality food and friendly service thus developing and maintaining a high degree of goodwill for any new owner. The restaurant in its current form has heritage of over 20 years.

Currently only offering pop up culinary experiences in the evenings, this affords a potential buyer with ample scope to expand into evening service, thereby increasing turnover and profit.

The menus have been carefully curated using locally sourced, high-quality produce to offer a full and varied menu in the very pleasant surroundings of a traditional red brick barn with the added bonus of additional seating in a sheltered, sunny courtyard. This exclusive courtyard area accommodates a further 30 covers in addition to the 40 indoor covers.

Included in the sale price is the valuable inventory of all catering and ancillary fixture and fittings necessary for the successful operating of the business, including some very recently replaced kitchen equipment making this a truly comprehensive offering to the market.

We would therefore unreservedly recommend a viewing of this stunning commercial proposition of unique quality. An excellent existing business opportunity combined with the potential for further development, this only comes onto the market due to recent family commitments and has consequently been sensibly priced to secure a sale.

Lease: The premises are being offered with the benefit of an existing lease or a new lease can be granted by the Landlord.

Viewing Arrangements: All arrangements to view are strictly by an appointment

This restaurant also operates as a café, bar and event space. It is perfectly situated in a small premium, shopping village, leading to naturally high footfall.

The building itself is a stunning converted 19th-century barn, with ample seating both in the barn and the courtyard outside. The site is offered on a leasehold basis.

The owner will provide an overlap transitional period for a buyer to learn current operations and best practices for optimum transfer of ownership. Additionally, to aid this transition, the business employs 16 experienced staff members, so a buyer would be fully supported.

This business has the potential to grow, as although they have a social media presence, with 1.2k followers on Instagram and 887 on Facebook, there is the opportunity to invest more focus into this which will generate business.

There is also the opportunity to optimise their website which would lead to more traffic.

The business could also begin to put a stronger focus on events hosted by themselves at the site.
